Circumcision takes about 5 minutes to an hour; however, recovery time of about a week is required after the procedure. Circumcision is now relatively well established, and most of its procedures are outpatient surgeries. General anesthesia is rare and is usually used for children, while adults are mostly operated under local anesthesia. Depending on the type of anesthesia and the type of surgery, in most cases, the length of the surgery ranges from 5 minutes to 1 hour, and if there is abnormal bleeding during the surgery or severe adhesion of the foreskin, the length of the surgery will be extended accordingly. After the operation, a period of recovery is needed, usually about one week, during which cleaning and dressing changes are required. Meanwhile, during this period, you need to eat a light diet, avoid strenuous activities, avoid sexual intercourse; if you have sutures after the operation, you need to remove the sutures after one week.
